NovelEnglishNicholas scowled at Claudia. "Get out!" Tears streamed down her face. How could a doll like her shed tears? I got up in silence and headed out, leaving spersonal space for the siblings. It must've pained Nicholas to see his sister cry, and I didn't want to see him coax her.
And here I was, thinking about how there was no going back for us. But in the next instant, it felt like I had returned to the beginning.
The spampered sister, the sdoting brother-even the scene remained the same.
As I brushed past Claudia, she grabbed my arm and hollered, "I'm talking to you, Ariana! Why did you cback? You've already divorced my brother. How dare you be so shameless and sleep with him?" I wasn't sure if she had stopped pretending or if she believed that Nicholas wouldn't mind her true colors, but she didn't even bother to put up a pretense now.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI stared at her for a few seconds, and my gaze fell on her hand gripping my arm.
"W-What are you looking at?" Seemingly diffident, she continued, "I wasn't wrong! Nick is going to be with Jasmine. You're a homewrecker!" I shoved her away. One wouldn't even feel cold walking on the carpet by the bed, and falling on it wouldn't hurt as well.
But Nicholas couldn't bear to let his dear sister fall. He caught Claudia swiftly before she collapsed to the ground.
I turned around and smiled at them. "It's only right for trash to be together. You two look much better that way." As I spun around, my smile vanished. I truly had no tif Nicholas had broughtback just to haveentangled with those bitches around him all the time.
Just as I stepped out, his frustrated, yet clearly restrained, voice rang out behind me.
"Ariana, who told you to leave? This is our bedroom!" I didn't even turn back. Dismissing him with a wave, I generously replied, "Give it to Claudia. After all, she always likes to go after my things." I couldn't hear what Nicholas said next as his words were muffled by Claudia's aggrieved sniffles.
"Nick, but you said this was forbefore." "Fine. The Coral Villa is yours," he said, relenting.
But Coral Villa was our marital home...
I couldn't help but think of Pete and my flopping fish on the wooden floor. It might be for the best that those fish didn't cback with me. This place might be even worse than a sewer. Wendy had arrived early. The moment she saw me, she threw her arms aroundand sobbed.
I texted her before I moved to Lexton City, lamenting the fact that I might not have the chance to eat her cooking again.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThus, she had prepared 18 dishes for breakfast that day, seemingly wanting to cook all the dishes she knew for me.
Sipping his coffee, Nicholas remarked sarcastically, "While speople still reminisce, she has completely forgotten about them." Just then, Claudia descended the stairs and dumped all my clothes onto the floor. Those clothes were brand new, and the price tags were still attached.
"Take these away, Ariana. I don't want your things." It wasn't just a few clothes that she had taken frombefore. Now, she even dared to act all high and mighty.
After pondering for a while, I took the coffee from Nicholas and splashed it on Claudia.
"Speople's greed is truly beyond their control. If no one cares about these things, just go ahead and destroy them."
Those exquisite clothes were instantly stained with coffee, but their miserable state stood out more compared to Claudia's wronged expression. I turned toward Nicholas and said, "Since you've given Coral Villa to Claudia, I don't think I should stay here anymore."
If I could burn Coral Villa down, I'd set it on fire myself rather than det my marital hbe registered under Claudia's name. Disappointment filled my eyes as I stared at Nicholas. I spun around and left.
The once peaceful dining room was now filled with imperceptible tension. Terrified, Wendy wanted to persuadebut was unsure of how to begin due to Nicholas's imposing presence. And Nicholas was infuriated by this morning's commotion. He grabbed my hand and draggedaway. Shovinginto the car, he glared atand said, "It's just a house. I have another one prepared for you as well." X
